Empire Season 1 Blu-ray and DVD Release Date and Details

Empire Season 1 Blu-ray release date

Fox’ Empire lit up the ratings last fall by increasing viewership from one episode to the next and making it one of the most impressive debuts in recent memory. The season finale had the highest rating for a freshman series since Grey’s Anatomy lit up Nielsen for ABC roughly a decade ago with 21.1 million viewers in Live +3. Needless to say a second season was quickly ordered.

Next up for the hit series is a turn on home video, and Fox Home Entertainment has passed along all the vital information you need. The Empire Season 1 Blu-ray release date, along with DVD, is set for Tuesday, September 15, 2015. Every episode from producers Lee Daniels, Danny Strong and Brian Grazer, as well as stars Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson, will be included along with nearly an hour’s worth of bonus features.
